Agrowing number of legislators in the United States are formally recognizing racism as a public health crisis. Resolutions introduced in both the Senate and House of Representatives seek to highlight the impact of systemic racism on public health and push for federal action to address health disparities.
Why It Matters
Declaring racism a public health crisis is not just symbolic. Public health experts and advocates argue that systemic racism directly affects health outcomes, leading to higher rates of chronic disease, maternal mortality and reduced life expectancy for communities of color. The COVID-19 pandemic further underscored these disparities, with communities of color experiencing disproportionate rates of infection and mortality.

> Another crisis. <
Yes. And it can only be fixed by demonizing white people. And money. Lots of money will be needed as well.
Our Number One Public Health Crisis is our nation’s declining IQ.
BTTT
Respectfully, I think our main health crisis is the decline in spiritual health. Perhaps that’s related to lower IQ.
Maybe they could have a parade. Or more riots. Or both.
What total nonsense. literally these people are enemies of humanity and seek great harm upon anyone who refuses to be controlled by them.
Even of they would get the control and power they want they would then be an even worse evil as they would with malice and perverse pleasure enslave, oppress and torture, anyone and everyone.
You may be right. Sometimes the cause and its effects are not obvious.
Oh, but that’s not racism, that’s retribution. So, it’s okay.
As my tagline says, the only thing systemic in America is the left’s hatred of it!
The left is the racist problem in America.
They are going to keep banging this racism drum from now until midterms. They will eventually throw in the abortion issue. They have nothing else to run on but a fake crisis.
If they are referring to racist blacks like that half time show guy who had 100% blacks as back ground dancers, they might be on to something.
Newsweak does it all the time.
High illegal drug and alcohol use might be a factor... but yelling 'racism' in communities that almost totally lack interaction with white people is an easier excuse.
Anti white racism is a major crisis in every major institution.
That is what they are talking about, correct?
Lol.
So 2021...
And the declining IQ isVery much in our CONGRESS!
Don’t care about this either. The majority of the “racism” in the world is towards white men, and is tolerated by those who espouse their hatred of racism itself. I will live near where I chose, and will associate or not associate white whomever I choose, and will feel no guilt whatsoever. None. I will not play the woke game.
Baloney. The true blame lies with left-handed people.
